OPE RATION
In principle the mixer is an integrated injector/centrifugal pump.
It consists of a mixer/pump housing onto which an injector pipe is
built coaxially into the pump inlet. In the double inlet pipe the liquid
is added in the outer pipe section and the powder in the centre.
In connection with the injector pipe, a powder hopper is mounted
above the mixer.
Between funnel and mixer a throttle valve regulates the powder
quantity.
During operation the liquid is accelerated by means of the mixing
wheel which creates a vacuum centrally in the injector pipe by
which the powder is sucked in. The products are mixed in the
mixer housing. In addition to the pump pressure the mixing wheel
also generates turbulence and high shear forces in the mixture
ensuring effective and homogeneous mixing.
For high product viscosities (>500cp) a booster pump may be
needed to feed the mixer.
